RESEARCH TOPIC
- The major goal of research is to reveal the neural control mechanism of multijoint movements in three-dimensional space.
I have addressed this issue by investigating sports movements
such as baseball pitching and tennis serve that require excellent multijoint coordination. I am also conducting the computational neuroscience study by investigating the relation between limb biomechanics and its neural representation in the primary motor cortex.
